An emerging profession
A role that the AI Act has made necessary for Italian SMEs.
Italian SMEs cannot afford a full-time internal AI Officer. But with AI Act enforcement starting August 2026 they need someone responsible for compliant AI adoption. The fractional model, already established for CFO and CMO, now arrives for AI.
Six concrete areas of responsibility that Italian companies are looking to cover.

First wave of operational Fractional AI Officers in the Italian market
AI Act dates have already kicked in. The AI literacy obligation is in force since 2 February 2025. Italian law 132/2025 (with Art. 13 mandating client notification of AI use) is in force since 10 October 2025. The deadline for high-risk systems is 2 August 2026. Italian SMEs are looking for someone responsible for compliant AI adoption — but they don't yet know where to find them. Those who train and certify today are part of the first wave of Italian Fractional AI Officers.

We don't tell you how much you'll earn. The Fractional AI Officer is an emerging profession — market numbers aren't yet stable. What we can tell you, based on what we see:
Italian companies looking for a Fractional AI Officer are SMEs 5-50 employees + professional firms (accountants, lawyers, labor consultants) + boutique consulting. Companies ≥100 employees tend to hire internally; companies <5 often have no dedicated budget.
Typical formats: 1-4 days/month per client, 6-12 month retainers, scaling on demand. Model similar to fractional CFO that you already know. Average engagement range 6-30 months per client.
Building a sustainable portfolio takes months. The first 12 months are positioning — returns stabilize after. Those who start now have a year's advantage on the market.
